Abstract:
The role of women as leaders has undergone considerable review in recent years, both outside and within the dental profession. Growing awareness of gender as an issue in leadership has focused attention on leadership styles and qualities with particular emphasis on the differences between male and female approaches. Further research is proposed, specifically on leadership within the dental profession. Trends are identified which lead to optimistic conclusions as to the future involvement of women in leadership in dentistry.
